How Do I Test?

Before performing your first test on your CoaguChek INRange Meter, please be aware of the following hints and tips

The CoaguChek INRange Meter:

Is for your use only

It should be placed on a flat surface when in use

Test Strips:

Please put the lid back on the pot as soon as a test strip is removed

Are single use only
